Screeners helped get a feel for the strengths and growth areas students would need. This helped establish our small read groups. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:09:37 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487287328 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487290373 I used the provided assessments by the curriculum. EL assessements were whole group spelling, completed in a writing journal; photos of student work was emailed to me (about 75% of students emailed their work). 

Euerka Math assessments were completed in Google Slides. No way to monitor if this was completely student independent work.  ]]> 2021-05-03 21:10:57 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487290373 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487295498 This project helped me to reflect on my approach of the lessons. I really learned the importance of beginning with the end in mind. This helped with the delivery of lessons; there was a better grasp of student learning and growth. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:13:06 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487295498 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487301171 We started using other platforms (textbox waterfalls and JamBoard) as a way to show formative assessment of student EL Foundational Skills. This gave much more accurate results and all students were accounted for. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487301171 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487305598 Annette lead an after school session outlining and showing off many, many awesome tech/remote resources. This opened the floor to the levels of Kami and other online resources that our virtual class could use. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:17:22 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487305598 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487308696 Our class began using Kami as a way to do indepenndent work. Kami is used for math and EL assessments. I can see the students drawing, adding comments (text and voice recordings and photos) to documents. 

Kami has also been a big help in hearing the students read. Being virtual makes it tough some days to hear every student read. With Kami, I have been able to have the students record themselves reading text aloud. Such a great resource! ]]> 2021-05-03 21:18:43 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487308696 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487309138 At the beginning of the year, my class used Study Ladder as a reading/ELA resource. This resource was teacher appointed, difficult to track progress, and limited student reflection/review of concepts that were not mastered.

We swapped Study Ladder for Lexia. Lexia has worked wonders! Students have fun and are engaged, I get weekly progress reports, students are excited to share their Lexia improvements, and students are connecting their Lexia leaning and sharing their helpful tips with one another in our whole group. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:18:54 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487309138 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487321660 At the conclusion of my mentor project, Jeanette suggested that I meet with Shiryl McAdams to work on MOY assessments and running records to track the progress of my students. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:24:20 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487321660 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487323395 Shiryl and I worked for two weeks together modeling, tracking, and recording data from running records and MOY assessments with my students. We reformed our small reading groups, found target points for individual students, and set small group goals. 

Shiryl shared TONS of resources with me to use for their groups and independent work. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:25:08 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487323395 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487328152 Since working with Shiryl, my students confidence in reading and their skills have improved. We hone in on targeted areas of improvement and I can see the growth in their reading. We now meet an extra day a week for reading groups. ]]> 2021-05-03 21:27:20 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487328152 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487334079 Reading the High Expectations text helped me gain lots of ideas and different ways of holding my students to those high regards. This helped me to relay the message to my class that we can learn and do hard things, but its going to take a lot of hard work. 

There has been an attitude shift in our class (for the better)! ]]> 2021-05-03 21:29:57 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487334079 matilynnyoung https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487343008 Structure of Goal:
I am learning designing coherent instruction  in order to reach all students with well designed groups and individualized instruction  so that each student is able to learn and grow through instruction with their own learning needs.]]> 2021-05-03 21:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/matilynnyoung/u4162ix0fkck0bkv/wish/1487343008
